Brilliant analysis by @corporateeurope@mstdn.social and @lobbycontrol@bewegung.social of how much money large corporations spend on influencing laws in Europe.
No surprise: #BigTech dominates again.
I mean the @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu really should not grant any company 1-2 high-level #lobbying meetings every month for 12 years straight. This can only lead to dangerous over-representation.

The EU Commission is preparing a Digital Fairness Act with measures against addictive design of social media 👏
Our new investigation reveals intense #lobbying by Big Tech to block such measures 🚨
Will EU decision-makers stand up against Big Tech lobbying?

Is that "recycled" plastic packaging actually recycled? How much CO2 does it prevent being generated as opposed to virgin plastic?
It turns out, no, and 6% to 8% more.
Be wary of claims made on manufacturer packaging and marketing materials - the petrochemical industry may be feeding them lines about the environmental impact of their processes and they lobby heavily to keep their market for oil growing...
